Two Versions of Same Song - Your Favourite

[mariana44]

Sorry for repeating this-I went on to the wrong page first time. !!!

COULD IT BE MAGIC----Take that---Barry Manilow

Barry, of course.

[Marian]

Yes, we noticed Marian!

[Sandra]

After the wonderful Johnny Mercer programme last night I remembered


LAURA--- Frank Sinatra/Vic Damone/Matt and many more

Lovely versions by the other two but I choose MATT

[Lena & Harry Smith]

"WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME TOMORROW" .....All good recordings ...THE SHIRELLES, BRENDA LEE, CAROLE KING, but DUSTY SPRINGFIELD GETS THE VOTE

[mariana44]

CHERISH David Cassidy---The Association

This one goes to THe Association

[Sandra]

THERE I'VE SAID IT AGAIN-- VAUGHAN MONROE/BOBBY VINTON/ VIC DAMONE/

FRANKIE VAUGHAN./AL SAXON


Although Bobby Vinton and even Al Saxon had minor hits with this song

I choose VAUGHAN MONROE

[mariana44]

I guess you have not heard Johnny Mathis sing this song--it appeared on an LP , only released in USA, called the Silver Anniversary Album--also included him singing "The way you look tonight." It was never released on cd, and to my knowledge these tracks do not appear anywhere else.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Don't think we have heard Johnny Mathis version of "There I've Said It Again," But Vaughn Monroes version has always been our favourite too, which reminds me of another of his songs ...THIS IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR. ..."Shep And His New Music" recorded this song too, but Vaghan Monro's was very good and the most popular

[Sandra]

No I haven't heard that version Marian.


I HAD THE CRAZIEST DREAM--Helen Forrest/Doris Day/Mel Torme/Perry Como


DORIS DAY - a close winner from Helen Forrest

[Lena & Harry Smith]

STARS FELL ON ALABAMA. Lot's of orchestral versions, plus vocalists, Frankie Laine, Ricky Nelson, Johnny Mathis, Lee Wiley, but it rests between Ella Fitzgerald and Doris Day, and no doubt Doris Day's is superb.

[Sandra]

TOWN WITHOUT PITY------- EDDIE READER AND GENE PITNEY.

a good cover by Eddie Reader but the original Gene Pitney is best

[Lena & Harry Smith]

THE ANNIVERSARY SONG... AL JOLSON The famously remembered recording , but I prefer ANDY WILLIAMS....

[mariana44]

I would be surprised if you had heard JM sing "there I've said it again"-it is a very rare recording--however-

"I HAD THE CRAZIEST DREAM"" by JM is more recent, and it is my favourite version.

[Sandra]

I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR YOU---- Art Garfunkel/Rod Stewart/Carly Simon and lots more including Johnny Mathis Marian?

Carly Simon for me

[Lena & Harry Smith]

DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL.... nice recordings by THE MILLS BROTHERS and DONALD PEERS, but AL MARTINO'S by far the best.
